My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello!! My name is Nugget, and I can’t wait to meet you. I am a Cairn/Yorkie Terrier mix at 12 years young, and I weigh in at 7 1/2 lbs. I am so lucky that Forever Loved took me in because I was originally found as a stray with no chance at being adopted. Can you imagine being labeled “unadoptable” because you had really bad breath and some yucky teeth? Well, that was my fate! Forever Loved quickly took me in, took me to their awesome Veterinarian, and I had a complete dental. I may not have any “teef” left, but that doesn’t stop me from enjoying yummy soft treats! I will even spin and dance for you to get you to give me one! I am such a friendly sweetheart; I love everyone and every dog I meet. I am so well behaved, well maybe a tiny bit talkative when I want your attention, but I can also be a real calm and chill gentleman. Facial hair is really in vogue right now, and I am nothing short of fashionable with my darling fuzzy face. I did get a little beard “trim” and surprisingly my hair is super soft, plus I don’t shed very much at all. I have this jaunty little gait, and I love to go for walks. I ride very nicely in the car, and really, what’s not to love about a scruffy gent with impeccable manners? No worry about me having bad breath any longer! I'm sure my breath is better than yours now! Please apply to meet me, you won’t be sorry that you did.
